You may have noticed my other Miehle V-50 Vertical press parts sales. I have a Heidelberg KSBA, and it works a LOT better than the vertical. I even have some tricks to let me get closer to the gripper with a numbering machine, perf, and score, so I am disassembling the V-50 and selling it part by part. Let me know if you have any specific part you want me to list, and I'll endeavor to list it ASAP. The assembly for this sale is the Cylinder Gripper Rod Assembly (inside the Impression Cylinder) with the attached Cylinder Gripper Lever (outside the Impression Cylinder). A partial list of parts are: #A23945, 23945, 23946, TP-102, TP-81, G-522, 23947, 23948, DP-22, 301SF, CR-212, TP-81. There are also 12 of the following: #22917, H-44768, H-35232. There are 11 of part #TP-104, (size #0 x 7/8)the taper pins to hold the Cylinder Gripper Levers. This is because one of the taper pins would not come out, and I had to drill it out. If I may say so, I did an excellent job. I was skillful (or lucky) enough to drill down the exact center of the recalcitrant taper pin, and used ever larger diameter drills until the last shards of the taper pin just fell out. The remaining taper pins appear to fit the drilled out hole just fine. You will have to get one taper pin to replace the missing one. The main rod looks almost brand new. The holes are all clean and unmarred, even the one I drilled out. There may be some other parts here that I haven't listed, but these are the main ones. The press was completely refurbished around 1980 and was used pretty much continuously for the next 15 years, when I got the KSBA. The vertical was then used only sporadically until about 2003. After 2003, it was used virtually never, maybe 2 - 5 jobs a year. There is some grease, oil, and dried ink on the assembly, but I cleaned it enough for you to see what good condition it is in. All parts are unbroken and uncracked. Most scratches and rust are only on the surface. I will tell you if there is any significant issue with a part. If I put a part up for purchase, it is because I believe that someone can use it. If you want to see any other view, let me know and I will endeavor to post it asap. I usually ship UPS for heavy cartons, but I look at other ways to get the lowest cost. Shipping weight will be about 12 pounds. I will greatly reduce shipping costs for multiple purchases. My charge is insurance + delivery confirmation + actual shipping cost + $20. I will invoice you with the exact amount after a few days, or, if you are in a hurry, pay the amount shown and I will refund you any excess shipping payment via paypal. However, The shipping amount shown is the maximum you will be charged for shipping and handling, and I refund any excess. Insurance, signature confirmation included in S/H. Returns accepted for inaccurate item descriptions only. International shipping ok. The ebay and USPS delivery estimates are wildly optimistic. My experience is that international shipping will take 10 - 21+ days until delivery. Only Express Mail has a chance to meet the delivery estimate. Local pickup ok on all my items. $5.00 pickup charge for large items. Alternate payment methods ok if no paypal account. Contact me for details.
